Lack of sex drive in women

Lack of sex drive is also called 'lack of libido' and 'female sexual arousal disorder'. Fortunately, for many women lack of libido is only temporary. Some women get over it by themselves. For women who do not overcome their lack of sex drive, expert medical or psychosexual advice may help.

Lack of sex drive is common in women but rare in men.

What are the causes of lack of libido in women?

The lack of sex drive in women can be of either physical or psychological origin.

Common physical causes for lack of sex drive:

  • Anaemia, which is very common in women because of iron loss during periods.
  • Alcoholism.
  • Drug abuse.
  • Major diseases such as diabetes.
  • Childbirth. Immediately after childbirth, some women lose their interest in sex. This is almost certainly linked to hormonal changes that occur at this time. After having a baby, many women are too sore and too exhausted to think about sex.
  • Prescription medicine.
  • Hyperprolactinaemia - a rare disorder in which the pituitary gland is overactive.

Common psychological causes for lack of sex drive:

  • Depression
  • Stress When you are stressed, your over-worked adrenal glands can rob your body of the building blocks it uses to make estrogen and testosterone. Estrogen and testosterone are vital to desire and sexual response.
  • Anxiety
  • Hang-ups from childhood
  • Past sexual abuse or rape
  • Serious relationship problems with your partner

What should a woman do about lack of libido?

If you can't determing why you have a lack of sex drive, go to your doctor. Your doctor can discuss the problem with you and do any necessary tests. Women doctors at family planning clinics are often used to dealing with libido problems.
